    The optimization aspect of the software has garnered mixed reviews, with many users praising its ability to significantly enhance performance in poorly optimized games, allowing for smoother gameplay and higher frame rates. However, some users have reported issues such as increased input lag, stuttering, and performance drops, particularly when the software is not configured correctly or when used with certain games. Overall, while it can provide substantial benefits for low-end systems or unoptimized titles, users are advised to approach it with caution and be prepared for potential drawbacks.

    • “This is highly recommended for anyone looking to boost performance without sacrificing visual quality.”
    • “In a time when many games aren’t well-optimized, this feature helps smooth out performance in ways I didn’t think were possible.”
    • “The performance boost and smoothness are so significant that it feels like an upgrade to the gaming experience.”
    • “Do not buy this item, it's not working on Throne and Liberty; I got worse performance with this item.”
    • “This is not an ideal software for any kind of games; I don't recommend it for anyone who uses a gaming laptop. What it does actually increases your PC latency, so the more latency you have, the more you suffer from input lag.”
    • “Just makes every game I tried run and feel worse, as well as add blur, stuttering, and shimmering sometimes.”
  • graphics300 mentions

    The graphics aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many users praising the ability to achieve high frame rates and improved visual fidelity through various scaling and frame generation techniques. While some players report minor graphical artifacts and input lag, the overall consensus is that these tools significantly enhance the gaming experience, especially for those with mid-range or older graphics cards. Users highlight the effectiveness of lossless scaling and frame generation in allowing them to enjoy modern games at higher settings without the need for expensive hardware upgrades.

    • “The graphics in this game are unreal.”
    • “All my worries were gone and I could just game and enjoy my games with beautiful, crisp, clear graphics, on high settings, at smooth framerates.”
    • “This is an excellent program that does exactly what it purports to do, providing much better visuals as a result.”
    • “The fps improvements seem like an illusion, and there are noticeable graphical artifacts, especially near the bottom of the screen.”
    • “It's not all positives, you can definitely see some graphical glitches on occasion, and text like most frame-gens is the worst issue.”
    • “There are slight (and I mean slight) graphical errors, but doubling your fps for $7 is just insane.”
  • gameplay69 mentions

    The gameplay experience is significantly enhanced by the ability to boost frame rates and achieve smoother visuals, particularly for older and poorly optimized games. Users report that while there may be some input latency and occasional crashes, the overall performance improvements, such as turning 30 fps gameplay into a smooth 60 fps experience, make it worthwhile. The software is praised for its lightweight design and compatibility with various titles, although it may not perform optimally in fast-paced games.

    • “I can now enjoy smoother gameplay and higher frame rates without having to compromise on graphics settings.”
    • “It effectively doubles the frame rate, turning 30 fps gameplay into a smooth 60 fps experience.”
    • “Definitely worth checking out if you want smoother gameplay without shelling out for new hardware.”
    • “Also, I believe this thing is hindering gameplay more than enhancing it, since it has also made some of my games crash because the AI generated too many particles in some instances, and it just overloads my system so much I drop down to 1 fps and it stays that way for like 30 seconds before fixing itself unless the game just completely dies and crashes.”
    • “There's about a half-second delay, which really impacts the gameplay experience.”
    • “It does have issues, like input delay and artifacting, but for slow games like flight simulators, those issues don't really impact the general gameplay.”
  • stability58 mentions

    The stability of the software is widely criticized, with users reporting frequent screen freezes, graphical glitches, and input latency issues, particularly during high-motion gameplay. While some users experience improved frame rates, the overall performance is marred by bugs that can render the software unusable, especially on lower-end systems. Many recommend waiting for further updates to address these stability concerns before fully committing to its use.

    • “It runs great and looks good.”
    • “7900 XTX on 3440x1440 runs great, no issues in the slightest.”
    • “Lossless can allow 30fps locked games to run bug-free at 60fps or even higher.”
    • “Now after a few days of trying with various games, the program constantly freezes your screen and doesn't respond to the hotkey, which leaves you with only one option to get out: switching your computer off at the power supply.”
    • “Since lately it crashes and freezes every single game.”
    • “I have a Ryzen 7 7800X3D and an RTX 3080 Ti with 32 GB of RAM, but since the newest update, my whole system freezes up and crashes when using frame generation.”
  • story23 mentions

    The reviews indicate a mixed reception regarding the story aspect of various games.

    • “Interesting gameplay, good story and captivating characters.”
    • “The action is fantastic and the story is jaw-dropping.”
    • “The story mode worked fine, but online was literally unplayable for gods know why.”
    • “Cyberpunk 2077 is kind of the same story as The Witcher.”
    • “As for that story:”
  • humor12 mentions

    The humor in the reviews revolves around the absurdity and irony of manipulating frame rates in gaming, with users finding it amusing that they can achieve higher FPS through unconventional methods. The playful tone highlights the unexpected joy of using mods and software to enhance gaming experiences, often referencing past skepticism about such advancements. Overall, the reviews convey a lighthearted appreciation for the quirky and humorous side of modern gaming technology.

    • “The fact that I can run my games at half the FPS my monitor displays by setting the in-game frame cap at half (I have a 144Hz monitor) and then use this to generate frames, so it displays 144 FPS is incredibly hilarious and so cool at the same time.”
    • “If a few years ago you told me that we can download FPS in the future, I would be laughing my a$$ off at the idea.”
    • “Years ago I told my brother about downloading graphics cards on the internet and he would laugh at me; look who is laughing now.”
  • replayability8 mentions

    The reviews highlight that the replayability of games like Cyberpunk 2077 is significantly enhanced through the use of advanced software that improves performance and frame rates, allowing older hardware to run demanding titles more smoothly. Users appreciate the ability to enjoy games at higher frame rates, which makes revisiting older titles more enjoyable and accessible, particularly on less powerful systems. Overall, the combination of frame generation and upscaling features contributes to a more engaging and replayable gaming experience.

    • “This is an indispensable tool if you have any portable gaming PC like ASUS ROG Ally, Lenovo Legion Go, GPD devices, etc. It already does a great job giving upscaling features to games that don't have it, but with frame generation, you can push a game up to 30fps and make it more playable!”
    • “This app makes my old potato laptop with NVIDIA under GTX series able to run AAA games from 2020-2024 more playable. The frame generation feature is really awesome with scaling filtering!”
